  1. If I follow a channel already, why does it continuously show up in the "Live Channels We Think You'll Like" section? What about this makes sense?

    Please adjust your algorithm to remove already followed channels from this area and show non-followed channels only.

  2. I've logged into Twitch today to find my recommendations page filled with stuff in Spanish, Turkish, Russian and Korean. I speak none of these. It's also offering me a "while [channel name] is offline" section for a channel I don't even follow. Fix your stupid algorithm.

  3. Motivation: Having 1/3 of the user's frontpage recommending unwanted items is not cool.

    Current situation:

    While there is the feature "Removing recommendations you are not interested in", the "3 vertical dots" menu is not provided for the topmost recommendation made in the frontpage.

    It is also the only way to blacklist recommendations too, which is insufficient to capture user's intention, despite of how crucial recommendation is to UX.

    Proposed solutions:

    • Add the 3 vertical dots to the topmost recommendation

    • Allow manual blacklist input in the settings page. Considering the team has already forgot to add the 3 vertical dots to…

  4. nbcolympics is a recommended channel. I am in Canada watching twitch and This channel says it is not available in my region when I try to watch. My idea is not to recommend channels for those in a region that cannot watch the channel.

    Thanks,

  5. I have recently started watching streams but all of the streamers I have found have been in the US and are streaming at times I am not able to watch.
    I want to be able to search for streamers using my time zone or multiple time zones as well as what they stream, if they stream with other people and how many subscribers/followers they have.
    This way I can find small streamers that are in my time zone and play games I want to see.

  6. Regarding the Promoted/Boosted streams, given the clear preference Twitch has on new partners and content, can we atleast have some diversity on which streams are picked to show on our sidebars, based on personal preference? Because I often get streams with good-looking girls and a certain specific appeal and I never get streams with good-looking guys and that same exact certain appeal and while I'm certainly interested in both, I'd like in a balanced way, in the right doses, because some of us, let's say, play for both teams! And I'm sure there are others with preferences that are different…

  7. My concept is to put more discoverability on the platform by putting a button along side the notification and follow button when viewing a stream and will pop of a side menu of creators that are like the channel you are currently watching. However it is setup that while you are browsing you are not missing any moment from your favorite creator. I demonstrated this concept in a YouTube video of mine: https://youtu.be/4ERv5dqNMZ4

  8. I was just thinking about an idea that would probably help people who are new to streaming on Twitch to have a tab list of New and upcoming streamers who have like 100 followers or less to see an entire list of new streamers who haven't had that many followers to be easily seen to give chance for them to be noticed by channels who have slightly bigger followership and viewership. This would give new streamers a chance of being noticed and checked out, and also gives opportunity for bigger channels to drop them a raid too, because part of…

  9. There’s a channel that just unfollowed for a reason. However, “Recommended Channels” continues to recommend channels that I just unfollowed to me. I would like you to modify this algorithm.

  10. So i got banned from a channel recently (Oops) and i keep getting this person in my recommended. It would be nice if people don't get streamers that they are banned from in their recommendations

  11. I have had my twitch account for some time and I am honestly extremely confused how things work with recommended channels. I log in and all the channels recommended to me are a)In languages I do not speak, b) games I do not play, or have never played or searched for on Twitch.

    Is there not a way to select say, a preference for primary language, game genres, etc? Also, navigating to this page was a nightmare.

  13. I keep seeing these "recommended channels" but it's always the top streamer, or the speed run comps, stuff like this. I actually hate speed runs, because they are not actual game wins, so I don't want to see that. What if I could filter that out a bit and have more control over what's recommended to me? Maybe by selection of game genre, or specific game title? Anything other than being recommended to watch people cheat at games. I'm just trying to find a way to get the most out of twitch for me. Thanks for your time.

  14. A menu you can click on with the top 5 streamers from every country.That would be cool.

  15. Allow videos or Channel trailers to get recommended for real this time.
    Let people React to it ( Like/Dislike/Twitch Emotes) and if the video gets engagement/Positive feedback allow it to get recommended by MORE people.

  17. This idea has been presented in the past but has not been fulfilled entirely, there are certain channels on Twitch which might conflict with someones views or have a negative impact on society. You can block a person currently and they can't interact with you, but presently on Twitch you can't block a channel from being in view. I understand that Twitch is a company and these streams provide revenue but I feel like overall this is a quality of life issue which will most definitely help in the long run.

  18. The "Videos recommended for you" and "Based on your viewing history" sections sometimes stop showing new recommendations and right now there's no way to refresh or dismiss them.

    As it is now, the recommendation algorithm seems to favor videos that don't necessarily match what you've actually been viewing recently. For example, instead of the broadcasts I'm in the middle of watching I see videos that have high view counts but are months old.
    ->It would be great to have a way to show a new list of videos or/and even a way to dismiss videos you're not interested in.

  19. So they don't show up when you are looking under games for streams to watch.
    It would be great if you ignored a user, their channel didn't show up when you were looking for streams to watch

  20. Providing 'personal blacklists' would give users the ability to hide content they're sick of seeing and enable for a higher quality browsing of Twitch. This would give users the option to hide content or channels that are purposefully clickbait or channels that they don't want to see reappearing when browsing for a stream. Channels that constantly use all caps in their titles are annoying and we should have the ability to blacklist them for our accounts. Same goes for many of the streamers who have 66% of the screen covered by their face or 'other body parts' and only 33%…
